Army wins back key town in central Syria

'The Syrian Army, in cooperation with allied forces, on Saturday restored security and stability to al-Quaryatayn city in the southeastern countryside of Homs after the elimination of ISIS [Daesh] terrorist group which earlier infiltrated into the city,' according to SANA.

'The military engineering units, according to the reporter, removed the explosive devices and mines planted by ISIS [Daesh] terrorists in houses, streets, squares and governmental institutions in the city.'

'Last September 27, about 300 ISIS terrorists moved from the areas close to al-Rukban to the city of Al-Quaryateen in the southeastern countryside of Homs using dozens of SUVs vehicles. ISIS [Daesh] terrorists benefited of the highly accurate coordinates obtained through aerial reconnaissance of the US-led international alliance.'
